- Learn to deploy applications using Django.
- Evaluate web applications for optimal solutions to real-world problems.
Web Basics
- World Wide Web (WWW): An information system interlinked by hyperlinks, where resources are accessed using URLs.
- Web Page: Individual HTML documents containing text, images, and multimedia.
- Web Browsers: Software for accessing web pages (e.g., Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Safari).
- Web Servers: Serve web pages to users via the HTTP protocol (e.g., Apache HTTP Server, Node.js).
Key Concepts
- HTML (Hypertext Markup Language): Encodes documents with hyperlinks; viewed using a browser.
- URL (Uniform Resource Locator): Identifies documents/resources on the internet, formatted with a protocol, domain, and resource path.
- HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol): Protocol for web communication; facilitates requests from clients to servers.
MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions)
- MIME specifies the document format sent by the server to the browser, ensuring correct processing of the data.
- MIME types include text, image, and video formats.
HTTP Protocols
- URL actions involve sending requests to servers using GET and POST methods.
- GET: Limited data transmission visible in the URL; not secured.
- POST: Secure data transmission, suitable for larger data sets.
HTTP Request and Response
- Requests are sent by the client to the server, with the server returning data wrapped in an HTTP response header.
-
HTTP Response Codes:
- 100 Continue: Part of request received.
- 200 OK: Request succeeded.
- 403 Forbidden: Access denied.
- 404 Not Found: Resource not found.
